Forecasts

Monsieur Fantaisie (6/4), Hope Probe (9/2), Glamorous Force (6/1), Fossos (8/1), Gustav Graves (8/1), Secretfact (11/1), Edge Of The Bay (14/1), Major Valentine (25/1)

Verdict

MONSIEUR FANTAISIE was arguably a shade unlucky not to win at Bath a week ago and he can quickly gain compensation. The 4-y-o was headed only close home having had to to wait for a gap from 2f out, so he can go one better this time around. Glamorous Force has dropped to his last winning mark and is feared most with Tom Marquand on board, ahead of Fossos who is also down in the weights.

  1. Monsieur Fantaisie6/4
  2. Glamorous Force6/1
  3. Fossos8/1
